    Runa, get your feet wet, put them up for sale. You never know, they may be good sellers. We're our own worst enemies, we never think our work is good enough to sell. Especially, when first starting out. You will find out what others think of your work, and if you really want to continue trying to sell your wares. Plus, the sooner you start selling your work, the sooner you will start raising money for your new saw. You may be surprised at how well things sell, then you'll be sorry that you didn't start selling earlier then you did. If you don't try selling your work now, how will you know it will sell later on?

    How comfortable are you with buying a 27 year old saw? I wouldn't be very comfortable buying it, surely to goodness you can find something newer. They are not a real popular saw, and are parts still available if something goes wrong? Len

    Runa, I think your lamps look amazingly nice, I wouldn't mind owning any of them. Len

    You are probably using a reverse tooth blade, they have a tendency of lifting the wood off of the cutting table. When using them, you will have to hold the piece your working on down with a bit more pressure. That is the characteristics of these types of blades, if you run your saw at a lower speed you should n't have as much of an issue. Try cutting with a different style of blade, just to se what happens. Len

    Rocky, selling things you make off of boughten patterns, is perfectly legal. What you're not supposed or allowed to do, is to share the patterns with anyone. You are not allowed to sell or give the pattern to anyone, which is quite understandable. As far as selling the items you cut, you can sell as many of them as you want to cut. Len

    Christian, can you not just lay a piece of paper over the top of the existing piece and trace it? Len

    Rob, I wouldn't scoff at $200.00, that's a pretty good haul for your first outdoor sale. Len

    Tom, if you're anything like me, you don't like other people picking out what you cut. Personally, I like to pick what I cut myself, there's just some subjects that I hate cutting. And if I leave it up to someone else to pick, they are more then likely to pick my most unfavorite subject. Len

    Jay, I don't like using regular casters for my equipment, I find that they have a tendency of bending the legs they are attached to. What I like to use, is a system that has a frame that the legs of the equipment sit into. The framework has wheels on it, the two front ones collapse to lower the equipment to sit flat on the floor. When you want to move the equipment, you just step on the front levers to raise the machine. Once the levers are set in the raised position, it is very easy to move the equipment. This type of system usually cost around twenty-five dollars, sometimes it goes on ale for around twenty dollars. Len

    I usually use Watco's Danish oil or their boiled linseed oil (BLO), both do a good job and look nice when applied. Len

    Ed, that looks great, it would be a perfect candidate for stack cutting. I'll have to look into ordering that pattern, I agree, it should be a good seller. Len
